Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate ((-)-SNI-2011), a novel muscarinic receptor agonist, is being explored as a potential treatment for xerostomia in Sjogren's syndrome, exhibiting an IC50 value indicative of its affinity for mAChR. This compound's pharmacological effects on the gastrointestinal, urinary, and reproductive systems, alongside its impact on various tissues, were thoroughly examined in species including mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and dogs. The metabolic breakdown of (-)-SNI-2011 was studied in vitro using rat and dog liver microsomes to assess its biotransformation. Upon oral administration, peak plasma concentrations were reached within an hour in both rats and dogs, showcasing rapid absorption and a subsequent decrease in concentration with a half-life ranging from 0.4 to 1.1 hours. Bioavailability was noted at 50% in rats and 30% in dogs. Metabolic pathways highlighted significant species differences, with both S- and N-oxidized metabolites identified in rats, but only N-oxidized metabolites in dogs. Additionally, gender differences in pharmacokinetics were observed in rats but were absent in dogs. In vitro studies pinpointed the involvement of cytochrome P450 (CYP) and flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) in the metabolism of (-)-SNI-2011, specifically through sulfoxidation and N-oxidation processes, respectively. CYP2D and CYP3A were identified as the primary enzymes responsible for sulfoxidation in rat liver microsomes.

(+)-Cevimeline hydrochloride hemihydrate ((+)-SNI-2011), a potent muscarinic receptor agonist, shows promise as a therapeutic candidate for xerostomia in Sjogren's syndrome. It exhibits a broad pharmacological profile across various systems in animal models including mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and dogs. Metabolism studies using rat and dog liver microsomes reveal rapid absorption with peak plasma concentrations (Cmax) within one hour post-oral administration and a half-life (t1 2) between 0.4 to 1.1 hours. Bioavailability is 50% in rats and 30% in dogs. Metabolic analysis shows species-specific differences: rats produce S- and N-oxidized metabolites, while dogs produce only N-oxidized metabolites. Sex-based pharmacokinetic differences were noted in rats but not in dogs. In vitro studies indicate cytochrome P450 (CYP) and flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) involvement in the sulfoxidation and N-oxidation of SNI-2011, with CYP2D and CYP3A mainly responsible for sulfoxidation in rat liver microsomes.

Noberastine citrate, a histamine H1 antagonist, has potent and specific peripheral antihistaminic activity. Noberastine, a furan derivative of nor-astemizole (an astemizole metabolite), has been shown to have a more rapid onset, and shorter duration of action than astemizole with peak antihistaminic activity at 4h following ingestion. Noberastine is rapidly absorbed and the peak plasma levels are obtained within 2 h of oral dosing. In preclinical studies Noberastine has been shown to lack central nervous system effects. After subacute (steady-state) administration of noberastine, there was increasing inhibition of weal and flare formation with higher doses of the drug. The 30 mg daily dose showed maximum antihistaminic effects.
